Same goes for albums but, at the moment, the YouTube Music link only seems to show up for some search results.

Lately, Google has been focusing more on YouTube Music after the streaming service replaced Google Play Music as the default app on new Android 9 and 10 devices last year.

YouTube Music recently gave users the ability to upload their local music library on the app's cloud and play the songs, one of the most important features on Google Play Music. (ANI)
